Univers Revers™ Total Shoulder System

A Streamlined Approach for Predictable Outcomes.

Reconstruction of proximal humerus fractures is often complicated by the loss of anatomic orientation features and the inability to adequately reduce and securely fix the displaced tuberosity fragments. With its uniquely designed implant and instrumentation, the Univers Shoulder Fracture System addresses issues relating to stabilizing the humeral prosthesis and accurately positioning the humeral head. Accurately reduce and fix the tuberosities with this system's straightforward, reproducible protocol.
The system includes:
<ul>
 <li>An intraoperative adjustable humeral head prosthesis for secondary correction of the implant head height in situ.</li>
 <li>A preoperative and intraoperative measure guide to accurately set the humeral head height without need for technically demanding and complicated fracture jigs.</li>
 <li>Lateral fin positions with suture eyelets for anatomic reconstruction of the tuberosities.</li>
 <li>Multiple suture eyelets on the trunnion to prevent secondary displacement of the tuberosities.</li>
 <li>Smooth chamfered dimples in the medial aspect of the humeral stem to allow suture fixation of the tuberosity fragments without causing suture fraying and breakage.</li>
 <li>Variable eccentric adjustment of the humeral head for anatomic reconstruction.</li>
</ul>

Univers™ Fracture Stems and Hemi Systems

The Univers fracture prosthesis is used to treat comminuted fractures of the proximal humerus, humeral head fractures, displaced 3- or 4-part proximal humerus fractures, avascular necrosis of the humeral head, and fractures of the anatomic neck. This prosthesis is designed for cemented or cementless use. The unique design of the implant and instrumentation, in combination with a straightforward, reproducible protocol for accurately reducing and repairing the tuberosity, helps address issues relating to stabilization of the humeral prosthesis and accurate positioning of the humeral head.
Features and Benefits
<ul>
 <li>Suture fixation: Multiple suture eyelets on the trunnion and lateral fin for anatomic reconstruction of the tuberosity</li>
 <li>Head height guides: A preoperative and intraoperative measuring guide for accurately setting the humeral head height, without technically demanding and complicated fracture jigs</li>
 <li>Intraoperative adjustable humeral head prosthesis for secondary correction of the implant head height in situ</li>
 <li>Lateral fin positions with suture eyelets for anatomic reconstruction of the tuberosities</li>
 <li>Multiple suture eyelets on the trunion to prevent secondary displacement of the tuberosities</li>
 <li>Smooth, chamfered dimples in the medial aspect of the humeral stem allow suture fixation of the tuberosity fragments without causing suture fraying and breakage</li>
 <li>Variable eccentric adjustment of the humeral head for anatomic reconstruction</li>
</ul>

Univers™ Fracture Technique

The Univers II humeral component was designed to account for commonly encountered anatomical variations of the proximal humerus. Variable adjustment with respect to the inclination angle, version, and head offset is critical to reconstruction of the proximal humerus. The simplified design of the Univers II humeral component enables for adapting the humeral stem and articular surface to the position that best represents the patient’s normal anatomy. Implant adjustments can be made intraoperatively within the humeral canal. This unique feature allows more accurate recreation of the normal anatomical relationships of the shoulder joint. With anatomic restoration of the humerus and glenoid, soft-tissue balancing of the rotator cuff is more accurate, allowing for improved functional outcome.1
